Featuring red dot-like performance at 1x and consistent holdovers through its entire magnification range, the new Strike Eagle® 1-8×24 FFP is guaranteed to make your range days better.
Powering the Strike Eagle® 1-8×24 FFP is the EBR-8 illuminated reticle, which provides bright illumination for red dot-like speed at 1x and precise holdovers out to 600 yards specifically designed around the .223/.556 caliber. Combined with the First Focal Plane optical design and built-in ranging feature, this becomes an extremely versatile and accurate optic. Speaking of illumination, the scope has 9 daylight and 2 night-vision settings, allowing you to dial the center interrupted circle and dot to exactly match your lighting conditions.
Rounding out the internals, an XD™ optical system and fully multi-coated lenses deliver a crisp sight picture to pick out targets faster.
To stand up to getting knocked around in the field, the 30mm tube is made of aircraft-grade aluminum and capped turrets keep your zero locked in, so you can run and gun if you need to. The included throw lever makes for rapid magnification changes, ensuring you’re ready for any shot at any distance.
With the Strike Eagle® 1-8×24 FFP, you have an all-new way to make range day even better.
